Tensions erupted between Shekar Master and Johnny Master factions of the Film Dancers Association over elections and membership issues. Reports say both groups accused each other of mismanagement and ignoring dancer welfare. Police intervened to control the situation as arguments turned heated outside the association office in Hyderabad.

The dispute escalated after a complaint was filed against Johnny Master and Sumalatha within the union. Members from Johnny Master’s group staged a protest demanding intervention from senior federation leaders. They alleged unfair decisions and lack of transparency in internal elections and benefit distribution for registered dancers.

The Film Dancers Association has long faced internal politics over leadership roles. Sources claim differences grew regarding new member enrollments, voting rights, and welfare funds. Both Shekar Master and Johnny Master camps claim to represent the true interests of junior artists and background dancers working in Telugu cinema.

Union heads are expected to hold talks soon to resolve the conflict. Dancers have urged quick action to avoid disruptions in film shoots. With Tollywood relying heavily on association coordination, fans and industry members hope the Shekar Master and Johnny Master teams reach a settlement peacefully.
